Description: Pendrin is an anion exchange protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC26A4 gene. Pendrin is an ion exchanger found in many types of cells in the body. High levels of pendrin expression have been identified in the inner ear and thyroid. In the thyroid, pendrin mediates a component of the efflux of iodide across the apical membrane of the thyrocyte, which is critical for the formation of thyroid hormone. The exact function of pendrin in the inner ear remains unclear; however, pendrin may play a role in acid-base balance as a chloride-bicarbonate exchanger, regulate volume homeostasis through its ability to function as a chloride-formate exchanger or indirectly modulate the calcium concentration of the endolymph.
Immunogen: Amino acids RSLRVIVKEFQRIDVNVYFASLQDYVIEKLEQ were used as the immunogen for the Pendrin antibody.
Storage: After reconstitution, the Pendrin antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
